Zing! Correct! The center piece is from that set with the little jeep. It turned out pretty cool once you ripped all the other stuff off. And the PTE towers are pretty nice too when you get rid of the ridiculous gun and give them all a coat of paint!

Power Team Elite.. it's a military line, on the cheap. They make really cheesy figures, but the vehicles and bases and accessories are actually pretty decent. You can find their stuff at Big Lots and a few other retailers, usually seasonally.

I painted the towers two different shades, which do you think looks better?

Didn't notice until you said something. Left, slightly darker.

WOW! Necro post
I still have the towers (sitting on a shelf somewhere), and if you look closely you can see the HMMWV's that would become my customs.. some two years later!!

lol yes.. I havent seen the barrel TRUheroes set in a while though, just the brick wall one. I bought a couple back in the day (2009) as I was thinking about using them, Now they seem much too shiny to me.. but I haven't bothered to go back to them.
The towers also needed modded/tweaked mounts to use the M2 .50 cal on as well, they still swivel side to side, but have no UP/Down movement yet.
